Nameless King

[You have absorbed a large amount of blood essence.]

[Your blood purity has been increased by 5%.]

[You absorbed a huge amount of blood essence.]

[Your blood purity has been increased by 10%]

[You have absorbed...]

The messages continued to appear until Wain and Eva stopped drinking the scarlet stream.

"Ah, I hope in the future I can try something so delicious..." Eva muttered.

"Yes, it will definitely happen." Wain said, looking at the latest posts.

[Your blood purity has reached 85%.]

[You can no longer increase blood purity with a blood essence of this quality.]

'85%... Well, that's not bad. However, getting the last 5% will be extremely difficult, perhaps even more difficult than that 35%.'

"Eva, what is your blood purity now?"

"85%"

"I see, but now you can start the second evolution. Right?"

"Yes, I'm ready now. I don't want to be a burden anymore. You almost died this time because you were trying to protect me. If I had reached Second Chronicle, I could have given that monster and many others a fight back." Eva said seriously.

She felt guilty about what was happened. She was the reason they had gotten into Virfal, and she was the reason Wain had been hurt.

"Of course. We all strive for strength, and it's natural. Everyone has their own goals, and strength is one way to achieve them."

Wain looked at the Bloody Tree. There was no trace of Gemini left. The tree completely absorbed the monster to gain strength and energy. This tree would now be the center of the zero zone and Virfal.

'Hmm, looks like the tree also absorbed the monster's soul. Pity, perhaps it could have possessed the Legendary Soul.'

Wain practically met the second of three conditions to begin the third evolution, but in addition to 90% blood purity, he also needed 5 Majesty. Achieving this goal was no less difficult than meeting all of the previous conditions.

Whoooosh.

A lotus petal flew up to them, from which Felix and Leon jumped.

"You did a great job. I honestly didn't expect it to end like this. Thank you for your help!" Leon said and bowed slightly.

Felix just nodded.

"What will you do with this tree? I'd hate to see such beauty go to waste."

"Don't worry. We'll take care of it. During this battle, I was once again convinced that the system in the city needed to be completely changed. Most nobles are good for nothing and nothing more than arrogant cowards. The structure of the city is also wrong. Felix, will you help me?"

"Ah, I wanted to rest and get a good night's sleep after this mess, but it seems I have no other choice. The world, as well as everything around us, has changed, but only we are standing still. It shouldn't go on."

"Is this tree going to be a landmark?" Eva asked.

"No, it will be the center of the new Virfal. It's time to destroy the borders between the five districts and create a center. It's the right thing to do, and the blood from those scarlet roses will be the reward for the best."

All the Plants realized that it was a bloody essence and everyone wanted at least one drop. Leon understood this and was going to use it to his advantage.

"It's the right thing to do. We need strong allies."

"Allies?" Leon was puzzled.

"Oh, I didn't tell you, but Wain and Eva and I agreed on something. Briefly, we are to meet with the city leader of the humans. It is located above the waterfall. I'm sure we'll make friends." Felix uttered.

"Hell, you're no more agile than a sloth, yet you always end up a few steps ahead. How do you do it?"

"I just go from the other side, that's all, it's pretty easy. You're always running from afar, and there's too much going on before you reach your goal."

"Okay, you can change the town and start negotiating with Gisle without me. It's time to get some rest." Wain said and fell unconscious.

Eva caught him and smiled softly. She put his head on her lap, and a few scarlet rose petals fell on them.

...

Wain slowly opened his eyes and looked around.

He was lying in a luxurious bed in a spacious room.

'Where am I? Is this Leon's house?'

Because of the interior that only wealthy people could afford, Wain assumed that he was in the Scarlet Rose Family's estate.

Wain slowly got up and did a little warm-up. He winced and received no wounds, but his body still ached. Each deadly battle forced him to put his best foot forward and overexert himself.

'Damn, it's been a long time. I hope I didn't miss the auction.' Wain thought and headed for the exit.

Click.

The door opened, and a charming girl stepped inside.

She looked at Wain in surprise and exclaimed, "What?! Are you awake already?!"

"You're Nina, Leon's sister, right?"

The girl nodded.

"Why are you surprised? How long have I been asleep?"

"Just one day. Based on the stories about what happened in zero zone, I thought you'd need a month to recover. You have excellent regeneration. I'm even a little jealous."

'One day... It's noon. The auction will be held at night, so I only have a day and a half. Okay, that's enough.'

"Do you need anything?"

"No, but I want to ask you something. Where's Eva?"

"You mean your girlfriend?" Nina smirked, "She asked Leon for a quiet place where she could get some privacy. She started her second evolution."

"I see. In that case, when she's done, tell her I'm off to the auction and don't know when I'll be back."

"Of course." Nina nodded.

...

Wain left the estate and Virfal. He wanted to say goodbye to Leon and Felix, but they had already gone to Last Light to talk to Gisle. They were positive, and Wain was sure that soon the humans would have a new ally, as well as the vampires.
